There are, of course, fascist tendencies. I didn't say there could never be, or never has been. You're grasping. You're also being just like a lot of other foreigners in thinking that all Americans think alike, and that we support every little thing our government does. The only speaking for my fellow Americans I've really done is saying that we're not stupid enough to adopt fascism. I know this, because we don't like being told what to do. We accept a lot of bullshit, but we don't like being forced. Fascism is force.

Let's be done with this conversation, shall we? I don't think you're correct, and you don't think I'm correct. The end!

I had a dream where I was suffocating while sleeping on a couch, which is what I was doing, and some force was trying to roll me off the couch so I wouldn't die. I screamed for my wife who I thought I heard in the other room, but it was that voiceless scream that dreams are rife with. Then I finally sat up and started hitting myself in the head with the TV remote because half my face was numb from suffocation. Then I sat down, stood up and turned in a circle three times. Then I went back to sleep.

This felt so real that I might have actually been doing it, but thinking I was dreaming. It was... unsettling.

I never said my country was inherently good. My country is inherently fearful and stupid, just like yours. I don't think anyone is ignoring the threat of fascism. Shit, we're still terrified of communism.
